28 AA rear fender welt?

Post by birdacre »

did this truck have the fender welt from the factory? not crazy about the looks of the shiny vinyl, yet do not want squeaks. also, the fender support braket.... is it bolted through 2x4 bottom sill or lag bolted into the wood. thank you in advance, kevin

Hmm - What is "this truck"? There was the 89-A, 85-A, and 88-A. Answers are different for each body type. FYI - Original fender welt was not shiny.

See AAFords.com:

Roy Nacewicz sells the original pyroxylin type welting. See page 8 in the link.
